Evenly balanced tennis racquets have a balance point around 33 cm or 32 cm.

Such tennis racquets are versatile.

They are a good choice for beginners and even for intermediate and advanced players.

These tennis racquets provide more power, as long as you can handle them.

Indeed, head heavy tennis racquets frequently have a higher swingweight, which reduces their manoeuvrability.

This can be interesting for players looking for easy power, like beginners but not only.

Many advanced players like to have some extra weight at the tip of the racquet to increase the momentum of the racquet while hitting the ball.

Several studies have shown that this kind of tennis racquet increase the risk of injury, tennis elbow for instance but also wrist injuries.

Twisting forces are increased with such tennis racquets when hitting the ball and this might be harmful for the elbow.

When playing with a lot of top spin and when using the wrist intensely to brush up the ball, the extra weight at the tip of the racquet might be hard to swing for the wrist.

My advice is to avoid extremely head heavy balance.

Instead chose an evenly balanced tennis racquet or a tennis racquet slightly head heavy balanced.

Head light racquets give less easy power and provide more control.

They are also easier to handle and to swing.

They are less prone to induce injuries such as tennis elbow or wrist tendonitis than head heavy tennis racquets.

Generaly speaking, head light tennis racquets are rather heavy. Indeed, a head light tennis racquet too light would not provide enough power.

That's why many advanced players like this kind of racquets.

They are able to generate their own power with their technique, and the racquet gives them a good amount of control and manoeuvrability.

Players who like the net game also like this kind of tennis racquets because of their manoeuvrability very interesting on short swings.

These are US values to measure the balance of a racquet.

The more HH has a high value, the more the racquet is head heavy.

The more HL has a high value, the more the racquet is head light.
